Trusted Emergency Auto Key Copy in Old Westbury, NY
Spare car keys cut and programmed at your car — we come at your car anywhere in Old Westbury.
You need emergency auto key copy in Old Westbury, NY 11568, and you need it done right. Car Key Locksmith, a mobile automotive locksmith since 2001, specializes in making spare keys — cut and programmed — while you still have a working key.
Most jobs are finished in a single visit, right where the car is parked — at home, at work or at the roadside. There is no tow and no waiting days for a dealership appointment: we do the work where your car is parked, and you hear the price before we come out. Here is everything worth knowing before you call.
Emergency Auto Key Copy Without the Wait
Our car key duplication covers making spare keys — cut and programmed — while you still have a working key. We come to you instead of you coming to us, which saves the tow and the wait.
Every technician carries key blanks, cutting machines and dealer-level programming tools, checks ownership before starting, and tests the result with you. You always know the price before the work begins.
Drivers in Albertson, Carle Place and Westbury have called us for years.
What We Bring to the Job
- Valet keys that open the doors but not the trunk or glovebox, where available
- Spare keys cut to match your working key exactly
- Transponder chips programmed so the spare actually starts the car
- Several spares at once for family members and fleets
- Remote and smart key spares paired with the car
- Ownership checked with ID and registration, for your protection
Practical Tips
- Don't force a key that won't turn; check that the steering lock isn't engaged first.
- Get a spare made while you still have a working key — it costs far less than an all-keys-lost call.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I have ready when I call?
Your location, the year, make and model, and your ID with the registration or title for when the technician arrives.
Do you repair ignitions?
Yes — ignition repair and replacement, including Honda and Acura ignitions that wear out and stop turning.
How long have you been in business?
Since 2001. Car Key Locksmith is based in Hewlett, NY, and has served drivers across Long Island and Queens for more than two decades.
Do I need to bring the car to you?
No. We are a mobile locksmith: the technician comes to your car at home, at work or at the roadside.
Can you copy a push-to-start smart key?
Yes. We program an additional smart key to your car while your existing key is present.
Do you repair remote head keys?
Yes. Honda and Toyota remote head repair is one of our most common jobs — a new shell, buttons or blade often costs far less than a new key.
How long does it take?
Most key replacements and programming jobs are finished within an hour of arrival. We tell you what to expect when you call.
Will a hardware-store copy start my car?
Usually not. Most cars since the late 1990s need a programmed transponder chip, which a plain cut copy doesn't have.
Is it cheaper than the dealer?
Usually, yes — and faster, because there is no tow, no parts order and no appointment. You get the price before we come out.
Stuck Right Now?
24 hour lockout service and dealer-level key programming, at your car.
